A general-purpose Minecraft Gradle plugin for all sorts of use-cases.
Cloche functions in terms of targets, a target can have any Minecraft version or mod loader setup that you compile to, all within the same project.
A plethora of customizable features are enabled by default, including but not limited to:
- Data Generation
- Separated client source-set where possible
- Tests for all different source-sets and configurations
- Run configurations generated for various different cases
- Pre-applied mixins, allowing for a better debug experience
- Mod metadata(
fabric.mod.json,neoforge.mods.toml, etc) generated for all targets - Multi-platform utilities when using multiple targets, such as Java @Expect/@Actual annotations and Kotlin multiplatform features
If you publish a library/mod API with Cloche, variants are automatically configured for consumers, thus if you use the library in common, it will automatically pick the right variants for each consuming target.
The basic structure for using this goes as follows in build.gradle.kts
plugins {
id("earth.terrarium.cloche") version "VERSION"
}
cloche {
metadata {
// Automatically generate mod metadata file
modId.set("modid")
name.set("Mod ID")
description.set("My Awesome Mod")
license.set("MIT")
authors.add("XYZ")
}
// (Target setup goes here)
}You can then set up the targets in various different ways, for example:
minecraftVersion.set("1.21.1")
// Having one target means single target mode, which means no common source sets used
neoforge {
loaderVersion.set("21.1.26")
}minecraftVersion.set("1.21.1")
common {
// common is implicit if there's multiple targets, but can be additionally configured
dependencies {
implementation(group = "some.module", name = "my-library", version = "1.0.0")
}
}
neoforge {
loaderVersion.set("21.1.26")
}
fabric {
loaderVersion.set("0.16.2")
dependencies {
fabricApi("0.102.1 1.21.1") // Optional
}
}// There can be multiple targets of different versions, with a common Jar generated with their common APIs
fabric("1.21.1") {
minecraftVersion.set("1.21.1")
loaderVersion.set("0.16.2")
dependencies {
fabricApi("0.102.1 1.21.1")
}
}
fabric("1.19.4") {
minecraftVersion.set("1.19.4")
loaderVersion.set("0.14.19")
dependencies {
fabricApi("0.79.0 1.19.4")
}
}This could be expanded to any configuration of different loaders and versions.
